    DOES ANYONE MAKE BUCK SHOT OR #4 SHOT FOR A 28 GAUGE????????

    I'VE LOOKED EVERYWHERE I CAN THINK OF AND CAN'T FIND ANY.

    Hello shane: They don't make it because there isn't enough demand for it. I do know that Winchester, Remington, Federal and Fiocci all make 28 ga loads, but it's only in #6, 7 1/2,8, and 9's. Regards Dave

    THE LARGEST SHOT I'VE FOUND IS AN OFF BRAND IN #5 SHOT.[:(]

    I OWN A REMINGTON 28 GAUGE AND DO A LITTLE CLAY SHOOTING WITH IT BUT JUST THOUGHT IT WOULD BE NICE TO HAVE SOME #4 OR BUCK SHOT.

    I GUESS I'LL HAVE TO LEARN TO RELOAD THEM MYSELF.

    I'VE BEEN WANTING A RELOADER ANYWAY[:D]

    The "Why Not" question is easy... a standard 12 gauge (2-3/4" shell) only holds (7) 00 balls... how many do you suppose a 28 gauge shell is going to hold[?] Same thing with No. 4 Tactical Buck... 12 gauge = 27 balls, 28 gauge = [?] (not very many), and that fact makes it a near useless endeavor.

    You could reload your own, but if you can't figure out how to turn your damn caps lock key off, I don't hold out much hope for you being able to read a reloading manual and work a reloading press.

    I JUST FIGURED IF YOU CAN GET BUCK SHOT AND #4 SHOT FOR THE 410 GAUGE WHY NOT THE 28 GAUGE.


    WHO'S THE NEW GRAMMER, SPELLING, AND TYPING, NAZI??????

    Hello Shane...

    First, it is .410 Bore not "gauge".

    Why someone makes .410 bore shells with either 00 or No. 4 Tactical Buck is beyond me... it makes no sense from a practicality standpoint. I was not even aware that it was even available... who makes them?

    Shane; Flocchi makes or made 28ga in #4 shot. The box I have is about 1 year old and has a picture of a small bird in the back of the box. These work great on Rabbits

    Thanks Handyman, I'll try some of those out.[:)]

    As for the question about the 410 bore buck shot and #4 shot, Winchester makes them. You can also get 410 slugs.

    If it was a matter of why............Why do most of us on this board own more than a few guns each?????????????............BECOUSE WE CAN!!
